The Crapalier, sunfart, sunchicken have been arond for years. The forcus has no where near the time in (the market) as them to make a name for itself. I had a crapalier as a work beater just before I bought my focus and it was easy to keep on the road because maintinance was dirt cheap. Go to the wreckers and get the part and do it yourself or have a buddy do for you. I have a bitch of a time find a dealer to get me parts , and practically no one has the focus in there wrecking yard for me to buy parts.

I also can't remember the last time or if the sunfire ever had a call back for problems before its retirement in 04/05. The Focus though has had a call back for ever year and model there is too offer.

People are afaid of spending a little oney for fixing a car so they get what is the ceapest all around.


It is shear economics. People will buy what is the cheapest for them in the long run.
